Are you a scrapaholic?? Scrappy quilts are my favorite kind and so I'm always hanging on to my fabric scraps because you never know when you might need them! And I always get so excited when I find the perfect place for them. (Plus I feel this weird [ok, pathetic] responsibility towards them. Like I need to provide them with a good home or something.)

But, if you're like me, and your scraps are starting to take over your life, not to mention your storage space, go visit Jodi @ Pleasant Home (if you don't already)! She is having a fun scrap-along and will help you get great joy and satisfaction out of those multiplying fabric scraps.

And just in case you are not like me (a budding hoarder who is on the road to reform), but you want to participate, I have some scraps to share!

Lots of pieces of Amy Butler's Midwest Modern and Daisy Chain collections left over from making this quilt. Enough to fill a bulging flat rate envelope. Leave a comment (one) to enter. This giveaway ends Monday, October 25 at midnight. Have fun!

I too feel that commitment to use my scraps...I think it is associated with guilt! ANYHOW, I would love to take some of that guilt...ohhh, I mean scraps off your hands. I don't have any like those! Too fun!

That quilt and those scraps are so gorgeous! I definately don't have enough scraps. I love the look of scrappy quilts but haven't made enough projects to have a huge variety of scraps. Thanks for a great giveaway!!

I don't have many scraps, but that's because before I start a project I map out EXACTLY how I'm going to cut out the blocks with the very least amount of fabric possible. 'Tis the poor poor life of a college student.

Thank you so much for sharing your scraps. I am kind of new to sewing so I don't really have many scraps. I have see lots of great projects to make with scraps. After seeing your beautiful scraps, I could put them to very good use!

Your quilts are beautiful! I can give your scraps a good home - our quilt ministry uses lots of scraps to create quilts that go to people in distress! Thanks for the chance at some beautiful goodies....

I love scrap quilts but I don't have pretty quilts. I make quilts for other people a lot so I have fabrics from favorite teams, scooby doo fabric, etc...just very random. Maybe I should join the scrap vomit quilt along! hahaha

I actually just made an across-the-body bag for a friend with the Amy Butler Daisy Chain line. So these scraps would be perfect to add to the ones I have already! That way I might have enough to make something cool. Here's hoping!

Amy Butler is the reason I took up sewing a year ago...I would love to have some scraps from these lines I had missed out on! Perfect for the quilt-as-you-go project I am about to start. Thanks for sharing your goodies, Amy!

I want to attempt some of the pleasant home scrappy quilts - for which I need scraps. As a newer quilter, do not have scraps of my own - and Amy Butler scraps are lovely. Thanks for this lovely giveaway.

Yes, you're not alone, I'm also a scrapaholic! Scrappy quilts and well, anything made with scraps are one passion of mine. The only problem is that at some point you may run out of scraps and have to cut actual yardage. LOLWell, I'm off to sign up for the Sew Scraps Along. Your scraps provided the extra "nudge" (read: temptation) I needed. Thanks for a lovely, generous giveaway!Happy scrappy stitching...

Oh I love scraps... I'm a beginner so I don't have many, but I see myself going in that direction. You never know what you'll be able to use them for! I've been wanting to make a table runner, but don't have enough scraps yet to make one. So this would be perfect! I'll be happy to give your scraps a nice new home.
